png problems?

[fooprobe]

Hi - having problems with a simple gradient map - when saved as PNG, there is artifacting on one edge; problem disappears when saved as JPG. another PNG was causing crashes, again solved by converting to JPG. both were grayscale. is there a known issue with PNGs?

Try RGB PNG - so far I know, greyscale cause problems some times.

Could be nice, if the greyscale bug could be fixed, because some big texture collections like from arroway are using greyscale.

Know texture issues:
Any texture that is not in RGB space
Jpegs saved as progressive instead of baseline compression

Issues with the texture loader are Chaos Group's responsibility as we don't control any of that at all.

excellent - good to know it's the color space, not the file type - thanks!
